I’m from Newberry County where I was born and raised. I resided on Rosalyn Drive for the majority of my life. I am the owner of Trendsettaz Hair Studio located at 2089 Wilson Road in Newberry.

I did not choose Newberry; it chose me it taught me everything I know and I chose to stay.

My vision for Newberry is to help encourage people to believe in themselves and put action behind their dreams and thoughts. Use my platform to reach those that feel they have no hope or options.​

The advice I would give my 20-year old self is to live a little. Meaning go on vacations and explore the world. There will always be a chance to work and make money, but don’t get so caught up in making money that you forget to live.

I admire my parents Arlene and Thomas. I learned everything I know from them. From my mom I learned how to love and to always help people. Even if you are not able, there is always someone that can just be their guiding light. From my dad I learned how to conduct myself as a business woman and work well with my hands and my heart.
